Is this question about Henry the 8th or the 7th? Henry the 8th broke with the Catholic church simply because the Vatican would not allow an annulment of his marriage with Catherine of Aragon.
He did not divorce any of his wives. His marriage to his 4th wife; Anne of Cleves, was annulled. His marriage to Catherine of Aragon was annulled by Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury. This marriage was annulled after the Pope continued to delay giving Henry an answer to his petition for an annulment of his marriage with Catherine. He then broke from Rome, and created the Church of England.
no he didn't because divorce was not allowed in the roman catholic church. Henry therefore created the church of England
Catherine the Great was worht remembering because of her achievements
Henry wanted an annulment granted, as when he realised Catherine of Aragon could not provide him with a son (he wanted a male heir to the throne), he wanted rid! The reason he came up with was that their marriage was not legal in the first place, as in the bible it says something like THOU SHALT NOT TAKE YOUR BROTHERS WIFE..... well, this is the reasoning Henry used.
Because the Pope wouldn't approve of an annulment from his marriage to Catherine of Aragon.
No because Catherine is from Russia, but Elizabeth is from England.
England was a Catholic nation and Henry VIII was a very Catholic ruler, even named Defender of the Faith. However his wife Catherine of Aragon did not have a son. Henry chose to annul the marriage to marry someone else. The Pope said no to an annulment because Catherine was related to the King of Spain. Finally Henry VIII made his own religion. When he died, his first daughter Mary tried to restore Catholicism but when Bloody Mary died, Elizabeth I restored the Church of England and because she lived a long time, the Church of England became very strong.
Henry did not lose faith in the Catholic Church. He separated himself from the Catholic church and created the church of England because he was in "love"with Anne Boleyn and wanted to marry her but the Pope would not grant him an annulment to his marriage to Catherine of Aragon. Therefore Henry secretly married Anne Boleyn and declared himself supreme head of the church of England.

The Pope stopped speaking to King Henry VIII because Henry requested an annulment of his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, which the Pope refused to grant. This led Henry to break away from the Catholic Church and establish the Church of England with himself as the head, causing a rift between him and the Pope.
He did not divorce any of his wives. His marriage to his 4th wife; Anne of Cleves, was annulled. His marriage to Catherine of Aragon was annulled by Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury.

Henry broke with the Catholic Church because the pope would not grant him a divorce or annulment of his marriage. His wife, Catherine of Aragon, had not produced a male heir to the throne. He then broke from the Catholic Church and made himself the leader of the Church of England and then he granted himself a divorce and married another - Anne Boleyn. In the end, she also did not give him a male heir to the throne. He then had her executed and married a succession of 4 other wives. None produced a male heir. He ended up dying with no male to take the throne after all the problems he created by his break with the Catholic Church
He created the church of England and enforced that, because the pope would not give him a divorce on his first wife, Catherine of Aragon.
The marriage of Mary Tudor's parents, King Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, was annulled by Henry VIII because he wanted to marry Anne Boleyn. Henry VIII sought the annulment on the grounds that his marriage to Catherine was invalid since she had previously been married to his older brother, who had passed away.
It was actually King Henry VIII and he actually did not create the church of England. The king did however seperate it from the Roman Catholic Church. He did this because he was dissatisfied with his marriage to Catherine of Aragon due to her inability to bear him a son and he was infatuated with Anne Boleyn, a younger woman. Because the Roman Catholic Church and Pope Clement VII refused to give the King an annulment (an end to his marriage), Henry VIII took religious matters into his own hands, separating the Church of England from the Pope's control and annulling his marriage to Catherine.
Henry VIII did it because he wanted a divorce from his first wife, Catherine of Aragon.
